EPSTI1 Is Involved in IL-28A-Mediated Inhibition of HCV Infection

Figure 8

Model for EPSTI1-mediated anti-HCV activity. EPSTI1 induced by IL-28A and HCV infection can activate PKR expression, which leads to the induction of PKR-dependent genes, including IFN-β and some early ISGs, to restrict HCV infection.
